Hello, I am very excited to be getting into the FPV side of the hobby. I did some research and choose the blunt nose versa for
my airframe, I have a Spektrum dx6i for a transmitter, and Hobbyking's Quanum Complete FPV Bundle Set w/ Goggles, 5.8GHz 32ch Video TX & RX.

Got the system, super excited for my first flight. Once in the air, however, I started to have these "signal blackouts".
Not to be confused with a blue screen, it was like my video feed would turn solid static for a second or two, then come back.
I'm sure you can see why this is a problem when it comes to flying exclusively under the hood. This problem caused me
to total my first blunt nose. Then (after building the second blunt nose) I decided to upgrade my antenna, another circular polarized 5.8Ghz (Anbee® FPV 5.8Ghz Circular Polarized Clover Leaf Antenna from Amazon).

This helped me to have fewer blackouts, but they still occured (just less frequently). Why am I not having slow static start to overcome my screen instead of a complete loss of signal?
Thanks for the help.
